• Experience with Master Data Management (MDM), data analysis, and data governance principles, with the ability to support trusted, high-quality enterprise data.
• Strong SQL Server expertise with advanced T-SQL including joins, CTEs, window functions, temporary tables, indexing fundamentals, and query optimization.
• Experience designing operationally resilient ETL solutions with parameter-driven design, logging, error handling, auditability, reconciliation, and restart strategies.
• Strong understanding of data quality controls including validation, duplicate detection, referential integrity checks, and exception management.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience.
Bonus Points For
• Experience tuning DataStage Parallel Jobs, including partitioning strategies, skew handling, sort optimization, and performance tuning.
• Familiarity with UNIX/Linux environments, shell scripting, and enterprise scheduling tools such as Control-M or AutoSys.
• Experience with Git, CI/CD pipelines, structured release management, and multi-environment deployments.
